Architecture – May meeting

At our May meeting we enjoyed the Grand Tour with Judith as we visited gardens from around the world and looked at how buildings and structures enhanced our appreciation of a garden. We visited too many places to name them all, but we travelled from Moorish Gardens at Alhambra to Landscape Gardens at Stowe; from the formality of the gardens at the Chateau de Versailles to the Arcadian landscape of Stourhead – and not forgetting Orangeries and Dovecotes! A delightful afternoon which should encourage us all to get out a bit more – weather permitting!

The next meeting is on Tuesday, 28th June, when we will learn something of the architecture to be found in Cirencester and Bradford-on-Avon. New members are always very welcome – we have plenty of room in our new venue.
